Gyro Gearloose #1-329-207 - Carl Barks cover

Carl Barks

Walt Disney's Gyro Gearloose #1-329-207, 1962 - This oddly numbered Gyro Gearloose issue follows four previous issues. Like the others, this may have been intended to be part of the Four Color Comics series. Carl Barks, who created the character, illustrates this deceptively simple cover. The gadget strapped to Gyro's back displays his ingenuity but also represents Barks' amazing ability to conceive of these inventions. This is number 5 of 5 Gyro Gearloose issues with Barks art and/or covers. - - - - - - - - - -Barks cover pencils and inks = ***
